Um...this happens pretty much in every archdiocese during the winter.

I'm not saying coronavirus isn't a cause for concern or being alert, but someone at the Daily Mail doesn't go to church often.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Diocese of Knoxville: Bishop Stika's instructions are that the faithful are not to receive from the chalice, and no"handshake of Peace" --- this is for the month of February, supposedly our peak flu month.

I could go with this all year 'round. We know receiving in either "kind" , we receive the whole living Christ: Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. Glory and praise to Him.

As for the handshake: that just serves as a distraction, esp.at the school Mass, in my experience.

You are right, it’s called common sense.
